Il solo peccato dell`uomo sembra essere nella sua stessa esistenza

Il debutto di questo giovane anglo-italiano si attesta tra le produzioni vicine a una elettronica intelligente, evoluta e spinta più verso la ricerca di paesaggi immaginari che verso i toni classici e ammiccanti dei dance floor. Nel suo caso si parla di una electro arricchita da influenze industriali, momenti minimali e partiture trance; su questo tappeto sonoro si poggia poi un immaginario legato all`ormai noto concetto di matrice e a una forte critica nei confronti dell`umanità e dei suoi aspetti più scabrosi, violenza, guerre e odio su tutti.

I have to make a declaration of love to production of French label Brume Records and I always impatiently wait for its new releases. Probably this passion is conditioned by the fact that musicians of this label reciprocate me by means of their music and up till now they have never disappointed me. (...)

Album "Escape" is debut of young electronic composer. And what a debut it is! Fascinating, similar to hypnotic dreams visual compositions, which force to look in a new fashion on such electronic genres as industrial, trance, dark ambient and drum-n-bass, flash by in front of us. And very fat accent is given to "cinematographicity" and big scale of sound, what makes music of OTX related with tracks of bands SPIES, FLINT GLASS, CYDONIA and MLADA FRONTA. But newcomer definitely has own style and his imagination paints pictures of other fantastic worlds. Regardless the dark entourages, suction hallucinogetic landscapes and mighty rhythms, there is a place in these worlds for deep emotions, innocent atmospheric female voice, good melodies, electroacoustic experiments and powerful dance-spiritual sorcery. In other words, OTX unwelcomely manoeuvres between smooth, thick, colorful ambient tunes, massive bass-lines, speedy breakbeats, trance pulsations and direct industrial beats. As a result several tracks on album can be added to armoury of djs, who like to surprise crowd by electronic diversity of energetic sets and fill dancefloor with dark mystic atmosphere (I recommend you to pay attention to tracks "Calls of the Middle-East", "To protect and to serve", "Under fence" and "Weapons factory"). (...)

As you can see, everything points out that "Escape" is very nice album and I only can wonder at good musical taste of Brume Records chief Gwenn Tremorin and his rare feeling for such talented guys as OTX. He continues to release new music in perfect quality and stylish artwork on his little underground label. Obviously that this company prefers quality to quantity of releases and therefore we have a right to link with OTX certain hopes.

Atmosphères ténébreuses, climats mystérieux et cinématographiques, envolées lyriques et rythmiques puissantesS Le jeune producteur OTX à de quoi séduire les amateurs de septième art. Cet Italo-Anglais installé à Paris manie en effet avec une maîtrise certaine tous les éléments clés des bandes originales de la nouvelle vague hollywoodienne. À l¹image de nombreux compositeurs de BO actuels, OTX mêle à des influences classiques, mélodies synthétiques et production électronique. Auxquels il faut ajouter ch¦urs, bruitages et autres détails sonores, qui achèvent de donner à son album l¹aspect d¹une BO de film entre descente aux enfers urbaine et rêverie cyber. Les amateurs de musique industrielle, ceux qui suivent notamment les aventures sonores de Manu Le Malin ou de Laurent Hô, trouveront aussi leur bonheur dans cet Escape au son puissant et à la production particulièrement impressionnante. Le défaut de ce premier disque prometteur, est aussi celui de nombreuses BO ou de productions ³électro-indus². Un certain sens de l¹emphase, quelques effets pompiers et des ambiances par trop nauséeuses limitent parfois l¹imaginaire.
